The baritone (euphonium) is an important basic instrument in brass ensembles. Its blowing technique is similar to that for the trombone and tuba, but the grip and handling are easier. Therefore, it can be learnt as a preparatory instrument for them, starting as early as the age of 8 or 10. From the initial steps - first with breathing exercises, lip and mouthpiece exercises -, then in ascending order of difficulty and gradually increasing the range of notes used, this volume provides daily exercises, scales, etudes, folk tunes and performance pieces, initiating the learner in the art of playing the baritone. The textual instructions are supplied in three languages: German, English and Hungarian.
